led to the three-quarter pole, and Williams
let out Bryan w. and came in length
ahead of Franklin. Time, 1;54. Consider
ing that each of the riders weigh over 1SC

one of the most interesting of the day

was greeted with rounds of applause.

seven starters-Stanley. Kenny, Cannie

horses were started off with Monterey in
the lead, Kenny second, and the Others
punched at the turn, with Cannie Scot in
the rear. AT the half Kenny came VI
with his stable companion, passed him
and came into the homestretch an apparent
easy winner. Cannie Scot, however, a
young Leinster, began to go toward the
front, was a length behind Kenny at the
draw-gate. but by surprising burst oil
speed and splendid riding of his Jockey
overhauled the leader and shot under the
wire almost a length ahead of Kenny
Great was the cheering of the field pool
buyers, and the handsome young LeinSteI
and the bright little jockey who rode him
were soon surrounded by crowd of adj
mirers. Mr.. Pritchard, the owner of Can
ME Scot, was one of the best pleased men
on the track. He manifested no surprise
at the heat, but coolly remarked that his
horse could have come there in 1:42 instead
of LA, if that time had been required
Cannie Scot is dark chestnut. large, fine
limbed as pretty as picture. and one OF
the coming kings of the turf. He is by
Leinster, dam Tibbie Dunbar, and wa:
bred by W. L. Pritchard, OF this city.
